Biggest problem with them has always been the magazines. If they come with reliable magazines, they should do about as well as any other AK.

Back in the day, I sold my SAR-3 for lack of reliable, affordable large capacity magazines. The only ones I remember working perfectly were the East German Weiger mags.

If anyone's gotten those AR-to-AK magazine well adapters working and into production, they might be a good option, as well.
